HISTORY OF ARCHITECTURE FUN FACT!!!
PANTHEON - the largest dome ever built in masonry or unreinforced concrete.
"T H E    E Y E"





The Pantheon has no windows and the only light penetrates from above streaming down like a river of inner light; towards midday, the rays coming through the Oculus (the Latin word for “eye”) are particularly intense.
 A beam of light penetrates this circular hole to create a dramatic effect as it slowly travels across the floor and wall of the rotunda, illuminating them like a spotlight. This intriguing aspect of the Pantheon immediately catches the eye of any visitor who enters the vast circular space.
